In the music world, Han Donger is definitely the most dazzling star this summer.
However, she is not the only one shining in the sky of the entire music world.
Among the returning bands who are on tour, Shui Qianyu is also one who shocked the country with two new classic guzheng songs.
Following Han Donger, Li Bi, who released her third album in early August, is also considered one.
Li Bi can be said to be a model in the music industry.
For a newcomer like her, she has released three albums in two years, which can be said to be extremely diligent.
The last singer like this can be traced back to 20 years ago, when the music scene was at its peak.
In today's music scene, most people first release one or two popular songs, then go around to make money and become famous, and then start advertising...
(Meteor Girl: Do you want to taste the little fists of nine girls!?)
There are really too few singers like Li Bi who focus on making music and steadily improve step by step.
Oh, by the way, the last female singer who improved step by step like her was Han Donger.
That's why so many people said before that Li Bi looks so much like Han Dong'er.
But many people have also said that Li Bi's luck is indeed not as good as Han Dong'er.
She didn't meet Shen Huan like Han Dong'er in the movie "Love Letter".
Another identity of Shen Huan is teacher Lu Xiaofeng, who is unparalleled in the world of songwriters and songwriters.
Therefore, Han Donger has obtained many of Lu Xiaofeng's classic hits, and now she is directly attacking the position of queen with "Little Lucky".
Where is Li Bi
Behind her is Phoenix Records, the largest record company in China.
But many of the songwriters Phoenix Records found for her didn't seem so amazing.
Just like the music scene in the past ten years, it is tepid and has no surprises.
Fortunately, Li Bi's singing skills and her dancing and live performance skills were very good, so she attracted countless young fans and became the fourth little queen.
Li Bi's third album is called "Soaring".
The title song of the same name was jointly created by Yi Kanghai, the favorite lyricist of King Su Mo, and famous songwriter Shang Ya.
This song is full of motivation and sprinting power, coupled with Li Bi's high notes, it quickly became the best new song on major charts.
In addition, the rest of the songs in Li Bi's third album are all composed by famous domestic musicians.
For this album, Phoenix Records spent 20 million on lyrics and music alone.
no way.
Music’s resurgence is getting better and better these days.
When those songwriters saw that Shen Huan was enjoying the hot drinks, they naturally had to raise their prices.
Another key point is that even if you don't care about money that much, if you ask for less money, wouldn't your status as a celebrity appear to be much lower
So after Wu Xinyan got a price of 2 million for a song with lyrics, basically everyone set the price of a first-class songwriter at 1 million, regardless of lyrics and music.
Of course, not every one of their lyrics and tunes is that expensive, but once they write a masterpiece, the price is 1 million.
For the "Soar" album, Phoenix Records not only spent a lot of money on the songs, but also worked hard on the recording, MV, and promotion.
Basically, the whole thing cost about 50 million.
It would definitely be a bit difficult to recoup such a large amount of money from the album itself.
Why do you say that
Han Donger's post-release work, "Little Lucky", sold 14 million copies on the three major online websites in one month, and 1.07 million copies offline.
This is basically the best result that a normal singer can achieve, only slightly inferior to Zhao Changshou's "Love of Life" with various bonuses.
Calculated based on the fact that an album costs 5 yuan online and 30 yuan offline, the total sales are about 120 million.
But after excluding all the shares, the production company can only get 60 million in shares.
This section also includes the cost of recording the recording.
So you see.
Even for Han Dong'er, such a high sales volume is just a return on investment, let alone Li Bi.
Compared with "Little Lucky", Li Bi's "Soaring" album is still far behind. People in the industry have commented that there is basically no hope of challenging the sales of "Little Lucky".
Therefore, "Soaring" may be sold for a year or two, and with the continuous accumulation of online sales, it will be possible to fully recover the cost.
But things can’t just be calculated like this.
Although Li Bi's records are not the best, she is very impressive in participating in various performances, commercial performances, and programs.
Her management contract is also signed with Phoenix Records.
Wouldn’t it be possible to make money back by doing dozens more commercial performances and performances like this
She is also going to participate in a commercial performance. The difference between Li Bi and those singers who only have one or two songs but dance around is that they are addicted to this way of making money quickly, but Li Bi just regards these as a stage to show off herself. The means to attract fans and the honing of one's on-the-spot singing skills.
Privately, Li Bi's life is very monotonous, and she basically has nothing but singing.
And because Li Bi is very energetic, she is popular among young people and has a lot of advertisements in her hands.
With more songs coming out and more popularity, are you still afraid that advertisers won't look for her
So this is the most important reason why Phoenix Records was willing to spend money to produce the "Soar" album.
Of course, another reason is that Li Bi is very ambitious.
Li Bi always dares to work hard whether she sings or participates in shows. This kind of hard work makes the senior management like her very much and are willing to support her.
Phoenix Records spent a full 50 million to produce the record, and Li Bi did not disappoint them.
In the first week, the three major music websites sold 1.02 million units online and 430 million units offline.
This is the first time after Han Donger that a little diva's album has sold more than 1 million units online in its first week.
The 43,000 offline tickets also set Li Bi's best result, which also proves that Li Bi's basic market is getting bigger and bigger.
After all, fans who are willing to spend 5 yuan to buy an album online may just like it casually, but fans who are willing to spend 30 yuan to buy it offline are definitely true love!
They are the most important and loyal fans of Li Bi in the future.
Phoenix Records was greatly relieved, but Li Bi was not satisfied.
After her active promotion in the first week, she started traveling to major cities across the country for promotion as usual in the second week. She had to travel for more than 30 days in total, with an average of one city per day. She was extremely dedicated.
Li Bi, who was so desperate, certainly had the idea of not admitting defeat in her heart.
Just watch!
I'm no worse than Han Dong'er!
I am the proudest girl! !
